Arab researcher: Kurdo-Arab unity preserves sovereignty and prevents division

Al Mukhtar said that the importance of Arab-Kurdish solidarity has become more urgent ,especially in light of the various challenges and dangers which face the Arab region, particularly the Turkish and Iranian interferences that threaten national security of many countries.

In an exclusive statement to ANHA, he added "In Iraq and NES, the Turkish government targets the Kurdish and Arab components together, in addition to the demographic change in the region, which violates the international agreements.

On the other hand, the Iranian government supports more than 100 armed factions to tamper with security of regional and international peace and coexistence among the peoples of the region. Therefore, we need an Arab-Kurdish alliance more than ever".

Al-Mukhtar pointed out that "in the midst of this, Arab-Kurdish unity has become inevitable in light of the escalating challenges that threaten the peoples of the region in the Middle East, which need more cooperation between all parties to confront them."

he also considered foreign interventions in the region as one of the challenges that require all Kurdish and Arab components to join together.

The researcher confirmed that Turkey threatens all cultural spectra in the Middle East through its direct military intervention, whether in Iraq or northern Syria, by supporting the mercenary to eliminate the cultural diversity of the Arab-Kurdish areas.

Al-Mukhtar pointed out that since Turkey's occupation of Afrin, the city has lost its cultural color, where eradication of all sects of the people, in addition to demographic change, has become Turkey and its affiliated mercenaries' primary goal, such as practices that were committed against the Yazidis in Syria or in some parts of Iraq as good example .”

In addition to the above, the danger of terrorism and extremism that threat sustainable development efforts and international peace and security in the region, not to mention the need to confront hate speech which destroys societies, especially in Iraq and Syria.

He made the point clear that terrorism represents an urgent need to coordinate cooperation between all Kurdish and Arab parties, by saying: "It is no secret to anyone the extent of destruction and devastation committed by terrorist currents, especially ISIS and al-Nusra Front in Syria, during a short period of time, ISIS destroyed many religious minorities on pretext of infidelity and leaving religion

whereas hate speech escalation represents a danger to peaceful coexistence in the Kurds and Arabs areas, therefore coordination and cooperation may eliminate and limit these practices.

He explained that maintaining a good relationship and joint cooperation among peoples in the Middle East, whether they are Kurds, Arabs or any other cultural components, contribute to solve the political and economic problems through dialogue and joint cooperation.

He emphasized that integration and rapprochement between peoples, sects and minorities, especially religious and ethnic ones, supports stability and develops democratic ideas by solving problems through dialogue and coordination instead of violence and extremism.

At the conclusion of his speech, Al- Mukhtar, stressed that Arab-Kurdish coordination would preserve the sovereignty and unity of nations and prevent division and fragmentation between them."
